The basic assumption behind this theoretical model is that the cationic species (M<ce:sup loc="post">n+</ce:sup>) will exist in ionic form and not form any complexes in the aqueous phase. A direct relationship between the concentration of metal ions in the aqueous phase and that in the organic phase was developed for trivalent and tetravalent cationic species. Using this model, the distribution isotherms were plotted for a given set of conditions. The effect of pH and equilibrium constant on the distribution isotherms were represented in three-dimensional form for trivalent and tetravalent cationic species. Consistent with expectations, the results suggest that with increasing pH and an increasing equilibrium constant one finds an enhancement of the extraction of cationic species for a given set of conditions. The calculations were performed in the pH range of 1 through 3 because for higher pH values, the pH shift accompanying the extraction is significant and thereby affects the mass balance equations. A comparison of the distribution isotherms shows that the total metal ion concentration to extractant concentration ratio determines the distribution behavior of metal ions with different valency. At low total metal ion concentration to extractant concentration ratio, the distribution coefficient was higher for higher oxidation state cations under similar experimental conditions, and this trend started to reverse when the total metal ion concentration to extractant concentration ratio was increased.</ce:simple-para></ce:abstract-sec></ce:abstract><ce:abstract xmlns:ce="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/common/dtd" xmlns="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/ja/dtd" id="ab0010" class="graphical" xml:lang="en" view="all"><ce:section-title id="st0010">Graphical abstract</ce:section-title><ce:abstract-sec id="as0010" view="all"><ce:simple-para>Display Omitted</ce:simple-para></ce:abstract-sec></ce:abstract><ce:abstract xmlns:ce="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/common/dtd" xmlns="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/ja/dtd" id="ab0015" class="author-highlights" xml:lang="en" view="all"><ce:section-title id="st0015">Highlights</ce:section-title><ce:abstract-sec id="as0015" view="all"><ce:simple-para id="sp0070" view="all"><ce:list id="l0005"><ce:list-item id="li0005"><ce:label>?</ce:label><ce:para id="p0005" view="all">Theoretical models for the solvent extraction of cations</ce:para></ce:list-item><ce:list-item id="li0010"><ce:label>?</ce:label><ce:para id="p0010" view="all">A mathematical relationship between [M<ce:sup loc="post">n+</ce:sup>]<ce:inf loc="post">aq.</ce:inf>and [M<ce:sup loc="post">n+</ce:sup>]<ce:inf loc="post">org</ce:inf>.</ce:para></ce:list-item><ce:list-item id="li0015"><ce:label>?</ce:label><ce:para id="p0015" view="all">Explicit algebraic expressions for the isotherms developed</ce:para></ce:list-item><ce:list-item id="li0020"><ce:label>?</ce:label><ce:para id="p0020" view="all">The effects of pH and K illustrated in 3D form for n=+3 and n=+4</ce:para></ce:list-item></ce:list></ce:simple-para></ce:abstract-sec></ce:abstract>]]>

The single mineral flotation experiments show that the maximum differences between the floatability of pyrolusite and calcite occurring at a pH of 7.5 in the presence of DTAC is more than that of DDA. This means that DTAC acts more selectively than the DDA collector. In the microflotation experiments carried out on the artificially mixed minerals, the MnO content and recovery in the pyrolusite concentrate obtained by DDA collector is greater than that achieved by DTAC. As evidenced by ore flotation results and contact angle measurements, in the presence of both collectors, sodium carbonate acts more effective than calcium chloride as calcite depressant agents. In the ore flotation experiments, a pyrolusite concentrate containing higher MnO grade and recovery is obtained using DDA collector in comparison with DTAC. These results indicate that the collecting power of DDA is significantly more than DTAC collector. FTIR analysis and zeta potential tests show that both collectors adsorb on the surface of pyrolusite and calcite through the electrostatic interactions. Also, these analyses indicate that the adsorption of DDA on the surface of both minerals is greater and stronger than that of the DTAC collector.</ce:simple-para></ce:abstract-sec></ce:abstract><ce:abstract xmlns:ce="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/common/dtd" xmlns="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/ja/dtd" id="ab0010" class="graphical" xml:lang="en" view="all"><ce:section-title id="st0010">Graphical abstract</ce:section-title><ce:abstract-sec id="as0010" view="all"><ce:simple-para>Display Omitted</ce:simple-para></ce:abstract-sec></ce:abstract><ce:abstract xmlns:ce="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/common/dtd" xmlns="http://www.elsevier.com/xml/ja/dtd" id="ab0015" class="author-highlights" xml:lang="en" view="all"><ce:section-title id="st0015">Highlights</ce:section-title><ce:abstract-sec id="as0015" view="all"><ce:simple-para id="sp0090" view="all"><ce:list id="l0005"><ce:list-item id="li0005"><ce:label>?</ce:label><ce:para id="p0005" view="all">The collecting ability of DDA is higher than that of DTAC.</ce:para></ce:list-item><ce:list-item id="li0010"><ce:label>?</ce:label><ce:para id="p0010" view="all">In the flotation of pyrolusite from calcite, DTAC acts more selectively than DDA.</ce:para></ce:list-item><ce:list-item id="li0015"><ce:label>?</ce:label><ce:para id="p0015" view="all">DDA and DTAC adsorb on the surface of both minerals through electrostatic forces.</ce:para></ce:list-item><ce:list-item id="li0020"><ce:label>?</ce:label><ce:para id="p0020" view="all">The adsorption density of DDA on the surface of both minerals is more than that of DTAC.</ce:para></ce:list-item><ce:list-item id="li0025"><ce:label>?</ce:label><ce:para id="p0025" view="all">Using depressant agent, the selectivity of flotation with DDA is greater than with DTAC.</ce:para></ce:list-item></ce:list></ce:simple-para></ce:abstract-sec></ce:abstract>]]>

Its flotation performance was validated by flotation tests using pure minerals. The results illustrated that DTA has strong collecting ability and better selectivity for smithsonite against quartz, calcite and dolomite compared to the traditional collectors such as octadecylamine, tetradecylamine and dodecylamine. Based on the analysis of FTIR spectra, zeta-potential measurements, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations, it can be concluded that the adsorption mechanism of DTA on the surface of smithsonite was mainly dominated by chemisorption and electrostatic adsorption.
